Foyt #77 2009 Cabernet Sauvignon
- Accolade
- The Foyt #77 2009 Cabernet Sauvignon won the prestigious Double Gold Medal at the 2013 San Francisco Chronicle Wine Competition, which is the largest competition of American Wines in the World and is recognized for its participation by the most distinguished judges in the country. More than 60 judges, including winemakers, sommeliers, wine educators, bloggers, and members of the media, evaluated more than 5000 wine entries.
- Sense
- Blackberry, dark cherry, cassis and licorice aromatics.
- Taste
- The surrounding woodlands of Redwood, Manzanita, Madrone as well as white and black Oak trees influence the flavors of blackberry, cherry and even a touch of blueberry
- Serve
- A mountain-grown Cabernet calls for serious protein, like a bone-in rib roast, to help tame the wine’s naturally powerful tannins. This Cab will also pair well with steaks, lamb chops, venison and bacon cheddar hamburgers. For a treat, taste this wine while enjoying fine chocolate.
